Former Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has offered heartfelt thanks for surviving a helicopter crash in Kogi State seven years ago.
In a reflective post on his Instagram page on Monday, Osinbajo expressed deep gratitude to God for his deliverance. He wrote, “Ubangiji (Sovereign God). Yesu (Jesus). Nabaka godiya (I give You thanks). Sarkin duniya (The King of all the Earth). Nagode (Thank You).”
Remembering the incident, he stated, “7 years ago, You carried every one of us out of that helicopter crash without a single scrape. Not one life lost. Not one wound left behind. Only mercy. Only grace.”
He concluded, “Lord, we are deeply grateful. We give You all the glory, all the honor, and all the adoration. NAGODE!!!”
His wife, Dolapo Osinbajo, also commemorated the day on her Instagram, writing, “Remembering the helicopter crash of 2nd February 2019. I give praise and thanks to God for His great deliverance. Psalm 104:1b. O Lord my God, You are very great!!”
The incident occurred on February 2, 2019, when the helicopter carrying the then-Vice President crash-landed in Kabba, Kogi State. No injuries were reported. This was the second air mishap Osinbajo had survived within a seven-month period.
